oh... thats not good :)

i just remembered... although it adds a layer of complication can you just use [pix_image] with a folder of jpeg's encoded 0.jpg, 1.jpg, etc? then just run it with a counter. this is basically just motion-jpeg without being in the .mov container right?

i have done this with students when in your situation before. its a bit more of a pain for beginners but maybe distribute an abstraction?

just a thought.

that will not work on windows because of this bug:

https://github.com/umlaeute/Gem/issues/156

according to IOhannes this has been fixed in the sources already but you would have to compile Gem on windows yourself. i didn't succeed at it and it's probably nothing you should do while a class is happening.

so, for this we have to wait for a next official windows Gem release ...

yeah, thought so ;-(

this means mjpeg codec is not supported natively, you will need some codec pack to be installed in windows.

i tried without success to produce an "indeo" video with ffmpeg. this is the codec the "homer.avi" video uses.

"wmv" can be played by [pix_film], but only on "auto 1" mode, frame messages don't work. same for mpg files encoded with "mpeg1video".

sorry, but i guess unless you can install codecs on your student's machines you are probably out of luck here, unless someone can prove me wrong ...
